Silo and exporting UV

nkoste

I'm so disappointed right now. After 3 hours of unwrapping in silo2, it turns out silo can't export my model with uvs. The uvs are there in the sib format, but I cant get them to export to obj or 3ds. All coords are reset to zero I think.

Apparently it's a known problem and there a lots of threads on it on the silo forums, but no apparent fix. Anybody got any experience with this or a clever way to fix this?

I've tried export and name groups individually and live unwrap is turned off.

Found a fix to this, but it requires the silo version 1.xx installed. In case others need it.

Export to silo ASCII *sia and open with silo 1. Volia!
Export obj and 3ds with uvs.

No issues here or at work with Silo 2 - I can export to obj with all my UVs.

Yeah I was a bit disappointed too, cause I really like silo. I was sweating there for a moment cause I spent a long time on it and unwrapping is not something I want to do twice!
